The Times-Herald is pleased to
see the county court take proper
steps looking to the establish
ment of the dry farm experiment
station in Harney county nnd the
liberal manner in which provision
was made. The members of the
court realized its importance and
arose to the situation without
hesitation.
lation for the proposed lry farm
experiment station. C. II. Lco
1 nard and C. F. McKinncy wero
appointed a committco to wait
I upon the county court to enlist
assistance in this matter. J. E.
Rounseville of Dciu'o suggested a
mail route through Catlow valley
to proper connections with Denio
and the club will take the matter
up.
Irrigation, city improvements
and kindred matters were also
discussed.
The club is planning active
work for the coming season nnd
with its progressive officers and
loyal support of the citizens it

LOCAL OVERFLOW.
The Times-Herald is in receipt
of the January number of the
"Pacific Northwest" which con
tains a fine article from Prof.
Thomas Shaw, the great agricul
tural expert, who visited us last
fall, on the advantages of the
Pacific Northwest to the home
seeker. It also contains a very
complete writeup of interior Ore
gon by "Rabbitville" Addison
Bennett The "Old Man" starts
his article with the sentence that
he's going to tell the truth about
it and he does as near as Hen
nett can tell the truth. He gives
Harney county the most complete
description every published by a
paper in the west as far as we
know. "Old Man" Bennett has
the thanks of this section for
such an article.

meeting last night at the church.
The attendance was fairly good.

and Mrs. W. L. Blott was elected ,a(y ig doInK we,

from the different departments
of the church. Mr. Archie Mc

elected treasurer; Mr. W. L.
Blott, Mr. Archie McGowan and
Mr. Julian Byrd were elected the

Whitney and Mr. Archie Mc

The time of the annual church
meeting was changed to the
second Friday night after Now
Year.
The matter of a new church
came up and was discussed at
length, and resulted in the pastor
being instructed to write the
Board of Church Erection asking
it to submit plans of buildings
and as soon as such plans are re
ceived another congregational
meeting is to bo called. It looks
quite probable now that tho
Presbyterian congregation in

sioner E. P. Sylvester as tho now
members nnd Geo. A. Smyth as
tho holdover c ,inmissionor.
Judiro Wm. Miller is acting as
county attorney.
Tho court has n great mass of
business to transact at this term
and will not completo their work
until noxtweok.
So far tho most importantorder
mado was tho appropriation for
tho proposed experiment farm.
Tho court took a very liberal
viow of this important matter
and its nction receives tho com
mendation of tho people. Tho
appropriation of $15,000.00 for
this purpose is a step toward de
velopment nnd shows tho pro
gressive spirit of tho now court.
It is not oxtravnganco in any
respect, for it will not likely re
quire tho full nmount nnd if it
does tho money is well invested
as the laud, equipment nnd what
ever improvements aro mado be
long to the county.
Of course this appropriation is
conditional, but was necessary at
this timo as it is necessary for
tho county in which tho experi
ment farm is located to furnish
tho land and necessary equip
ment. Tho nction of tho court
is a strong card toward securing
tho farm for this county.
Tho order of tho court after
citing the conditions govorning
tho establishment of tho farm
says:
"And it further appearing
that the amount necessary for
such equipment is at this time
unknown nnd the court appre
ciates the necessity nnd gront ad
vantage to tho county nnd tho
taxpayers generally this farm
will mean, and being importuned
by a largo number of tho heav
iest taxpayers in the county
thereto.
"It is therefor ordered nnd
there is hereby appropriated out
of the general funds of this coun
ty to be used in the purchnso of
equipment for nn experiment
farm to be located in this county
the Bum of $15,000.00 or so much
thereof as is absolutely necessary
to purchase such cfiuinment as
tho proper authorities deem neces
sary for such experiment farm."
On petition of forty-six tax
payers a road district was cre
ated to bo known as No. 5. The
boundaries are: Commencing at
tho southwest corner township
23, thenco north nlong tho range
line between range 31 and 32 to
the north lino Harney county;
thenco following tho north lino
to the northwest corner of tho
Drcwsey road district; thence
south and southeast along tho
Drewsey road district lino to tho
range lino between range 31 nnd
35; thenco south along tho rango
line to the southeast corner of
township 23; thenco west nlong
same township to plnce of be
ginning. The petitioners also
asked for the appointment of Joe
Clark as supervisor of said dis
trict and ho was appointed for
tho ensuing year.
Tho report of county expert
bterling was approved and ac
cepted.
It appearing that the work of
tho assessor has greatly increased
and prospects for a greater in
crcaso for tho coming year, the
assessor was authorized and em
powered to appoint a suitublo
person as his deputy between
tho 1st dny Feb. and 1st day of
Nov. of each year nt a salary of
$100 por month.
Viewers ordered to proceed to
Iny out county road to tho west
of Burns as petitioned for by
Geo. Young and others.
An order wns entered requir
ing road supervisors to niako de
tailed reports of all work done,
showing amounts paid for what,
where and when, etc.
No now school district may bo
created in future during months
of July, August, Sept. or Oct. by
an order made This is to nro-
vent confusion in boundaries.
Tho tax levy has been fixed at
10 mills, tho samo as last year.
While tho court was not fully set
tled ns to how tho funds should
bo divided this morning it is like
